Sorry to read about the loss of your Dad. Very cool story, history and car. Keep it for the next younger generation now.

Nice car.

Welcome. Nice car and cool story.

Of course I probably should have added that we went through them entirely before just bolting them on. Never trust anything right out of the box.

Looking good so far. I don't think I will ever do a full resto on my Roached Runner since it is only a 383 car. However, I did also install the full floor pan to at least make it safe to drive. Even check out my 70's seat covers....

Still made the Road Runners in the F body/Valare platform in the late 70's early 80's also and with the E58 360 option they were pretty fast cars. My buddy had several of them as we were kids.

4-1/2" b.s. and you will be fine. I have 6 sets of wheels and tires all with the same combo on several of my B Bodies.

I installed a pair on one of my buddies mild build 400/451 stroker. After cam break in and several heat cycles we re-torqued them. He now has thousands of miles and several years on them with no issues.

No, that is fine. That is about where mine runs on a hot day, same with my buddies 67 GTX.

Anyone know if there a safe place to park a truck and trailer for those coming from long distances?

Next weekend.

Mine is woodgrain, but in a 70' Charger. It has the standard black panel under the woodgrain cover plate.

The ramps/runners are like 24" wide even if you are a little off it will still be okay. I usually pull my car alot closer to the left side of the runners. That way I have more room between the vehicles for the vehicle to the right of the car on the ramps.

And, don't forget to check to make sure you have a pinion snubber or it just didn't deteriorate and fall off.

I have had AMD's on my Challenger now for over 10 years. They fit good and still look good today.

Nope, I don't plan on buffing it out. Never have to wash, wax or Armour All anything is wonderful.

I have the opposite fun. I never challenge anyone to race. I like when other musclecars and today's newer iron challenge or rev their engines at me and I blow their doors off in my Roached Runner. They never expect it from this old p.o.s.

Had a few of mine out for some sun also.

They should still clear depending on your tire size.

I like it. That is why I just leave mine alone and drive it as is.it is almost to rough to try to restore. However, I did replace the entire floor pan section to at least make it safe to drive.
